Re: My 78 K15 High Sierra build - Fish Tremble

I've also stripped the paint from both fenders. I've now got many hours work into them between my initial attempts at patching the rust, and time spent stripping the paint. Found some additional rust pitting which I cut out for yet another patch. Found this mess behind it. At this point, I know there is still rust between the inner and outer skins. My body lines look like total crap from the patching and I don't know that I can make them look right with filler. I've resisted, but I think after posting this I'm going shopping for new repro fenders and just take my chances on them fitting.
